Hi everyone
I need to have my site reviewed. I have just redone some of the designing but I'm still going to get another logo at the top and a cartoon character which is nearly finished.
The site is to sell a CGI script I made for people that want to add the Open Directory Project to their site.http://servicesdir.com/mozzy/
Thanks a TON to everyone who reviews it...

The colors are a bit straining to the eyes you could make them a bit darker and i found it hard to read on the main page because of the colors. I can't really think of anything else to say so good luck!

Since the colors have been discussed, I won't. One thing I see is (this may just be a personal thing) never use the "click here" phrase. Write it up like you would for a magazine article or whatever and link the open directory project from that sentence. Also the bsa.org picture is a little hard to read and there is no link. Maybe you just forgot to link it but I thought I would mention it anyway. Other than that it looks like a good program your selling and the download speed is great. Good luck! IE 5.5 @ 800x600 & 1024x768 16 bit color, 56k.

I would suggest you experiment with
fonts. And since you have such a limited
range of available fonts in strict html,
I'd consider using some graphics for
some of the headlines or links.

If your goal is to make the site load
fast, that's one thing, but there's a
certain - sorry - amateurishness to the
pages I saw, and it's my experience that users
tend to equate this with hucksterism and -
let me invent a word here - fly-by-night-iness.
I certainly mean that to be more
constructive than it probably sounds!

I'd change the striped background image to something a little less contrasting.. its straining to the eyes..

The colors are a bit bright. Especially the red and green together. I would choose a couple of other colors (maybe blue and yellow? Mozzy sounds like a blue and yellow site to me!) that would turn into the basic color scheme for your site. I understand that you want people to catch the main headlines and information on your site by using different colors, but if anything, it bothers them and drives them away! :lookout:

Hey Rory...the site looks much better. I can read the bsa.org graphic and its linked. The "click here" and pajamas are gone. I did not like the green before but it doesn't look bad on the blue background. Only thing I see now is that "Intro to Mozzy" in your navagation menu is not on 1 line. Hope we helped

I don't know why "Intro to MOZZY" isn't on one line. Can you give me your browser and resolution please. It seem that I can abuse the page as much as I want by turning off CSS and compacting the windows, etc.. and it it still on one line.
